Our tour guide was absolutely wonderful. I believe this would be a fun experience for kids. As an adult, maybe not so much. I recommend goggles! The salt water stayed in our eyes constantly. It made it hard to keep them open to enjoy the experience. The boat is fast and jerks you around a lot which was expected. It can be hard to see anything from the boar as well. I was just hoping to get better views of the area, it was hard to do.

Jet Boat Extreme on the Gold Coast was absolutely amazing! The ride was thrilling from start to finish — full of speed, spins, and splashes that kept us laughing and screaming the whole time. The driver was fun and made the experience even better. The views of the coastline were beautiful, and the adrenaline rush was unbeatable. Definitely a must-do when visiting the Gold Coast!
